Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is

Song of the moment: "Heard the World" - OAR

My Pops is comin' in tonight. I'm really jazzed, and a bit nervous. I haven't seen him in almost two years (longest span of time since he was in the Corps). This will be the first time for him to meet April and, of course, his Grandson John. I'd love for this trip, as brief as it may be, to be great and memorable. I can't wait for him to see my family! Maybe I'll take him into D.C. and show him some sights... now if only I can get a hold of the camera for the day!

Is it just me, or is the idea of a military tribunal so... unethical? Should the U.S. really be trying to play world police to this extent? Or to any extent? Trying to impose democracy on another country whos basic beliefs are almost contradictory to a democratic state the way the U.S. knows it is the 21st Century equivelant of Rome trying to bring advanced lifestyles through the rest of the Eastern known world through military conquests and corrupt beaurocratic governors. And the military tribunals? It just doesn't say "U.S.A.!!!" to me. The two ideas don't mesh at all.

Hmmm...

If you're looking for a reason to get wild tonight... it's that half-way mark to St. Paddy's Day! There you are, go nuts!

Remember, a cookie is just a cookie, but Newtons... well, they stick to the roof (cieling?) of my mouth.

Good night, and good luck...
